English Rose 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles'
FamilyRosaceae
Rosa ‘Tess of the d’Urbervilles’, commonly known as the ‘Tess of the d’Urbervilles’ English rose, is a majestic David Austin-style variety renowned for its deep red color and rich fragrance. Its vigorous, bushy to slightly climbing habit allows it to be trained as a large shrub or espaliered against a wall or arch. It produces large, double, rosette-shaped flowers of an intense crimson red with velvety reflections, maintaining their depth throughout their bloom. Very fragrant, they diffuse a classic old rose fragrance, powerful and enveloping. Flowering from early summer until the first frosts, this rose offers a spectacular presence in flower beds or vertical structures. Rosa ‘Tess of the d’Urbervilles’ attracts pollinating insects and brings dramatic elegance and romanticism to landscape designs.
